Among these people was popular Florida rapper Kodak Black who was the unfortunate victim of a gunshot wound to his leg. Reports claim that the altercation took place at an after-party hosted by Justin Bieber and Kodak was simply a bystander during all of the unnecessary commotions. Various witnesses claim that they saw Kodak get hit as he was attempting to assist another person who was in need. 

The 24-year-old artist has yet to make a public comment on his current situation, however medical officials stated that he will continue to make a full recovery as the weeks go on. In fact, the only thing the public has heard or seen from Kodak was a recent tweet he sent out to his fans: “Drake says box seat with him at the Super Bowl… I like the Bengals BTW,” he posted to his Twitter feed. With this statement, fans can assume that the rapper simply prefers to keep his personal business private, but they might just get to see him during this year’s Super Bowl LVI. 
Back in November 2019, Kodak was sentenced to 46 months in federal prison as a result of forging background check forms in the process of purchasing a gun. Officers later informed all those involved in the case that they had come across two separate firearms at a crime scene. Medical examiners then found the rapper’s fingerprints all over one of the guns. However, Kodak has recently been going viral over social media for his previously released track Super Gremlin that is currently sitting at 96,898,934 full listens on Spotify alone. As the young artist continues down his road to recovery, his fans can only hope that he is using his time to create more hit songs for them to enjoy.

Kanye Speaks On Kim ‘Intentionally’ Hurting Him  https://brevmag.com/kanye-speaks-on-kim-intentionally-hurting-him/ https://brevmag.com/kanye-speaks-on-kim-intentionally-hurting-him/#respond Mon, 24 Jan 2022 07:19:58 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10996

Kanye West recently participated in an exclusive interview with Jason Lee from Hollywood Unlocked in which the topic of discussion was ‘controlling your own narrative.’ Taking place on Monday, January 24, 2022, and lasting a total of 44 minutes, the 44-year-old DONDA artist was able to give his audience a deeper understanding of his perspective and reasoning behind all of the sudden movements we have seen him make since Kim Kardashian was removed herself from the picture. Yeezy also dove into an explanation of why the paparazzi usually receive the impulsive reactions that they do from him, mainly being because they lack a necessary sense of ‘boundaries’ and ‘privacy.’

At a certain point throughout the interview, the conversation took a turn in which Kanye wound up referring back to a time in October of last year when Kim invited him to her SNL skit; he then watched the mother of his children kiss her current boyfriend, Pete Davidson, directly in front of him upon his arrival. “People intentionally do things to be mean and hurt you,” Ye stated. “How are you going to bring me to SNL and kiss the dude you are dating right in front of me and everyone is like, ‘Oh that’s cool.’” The entrepreneur then went on to specify how he does not want to start any sort of drama between his family or release any information in relation to his ex-wife that is not meant for him to say.
Kim Kardashian did not make her romantic relationship with Pete Davidson public until around mid-November of last year, after Kanye saw them kissing on SNL, leaving the clear conclusion that the two celebrities have been together for longer than what we have been told. However, Yeezy seems to be slowly grasping his new life as he is now in a public relationship with American actress Julia Fox, which seems to have commenced back at the start of 2022. As both personalities continue to go down separate paths in their love lives, the best steps they can take moving forward is being mature about both situations in order to create the optimal environment for their children.

The once empty vehicle is now suddenly filled with people and is blasting music once the engine starts, the party begins. The already energetic track proved fitting for an artist yet energy-filled visual brought to you by directors Mac Grant and Chad Tennies. The track is complimented nicely with feature verses from 21 Savage and Baby Tate.

Even though J.I.D has not is yet dropped his highly-anticipated album, The Forever Story. We can still expect plenty from the Dreamville signee in 2022. He recently took to his social media to announce that he will be performing at Coachella this year.

Kyrie Irving Set To Make NBA Return https://brevmag.com/kyrie-irving-set-to-make-nba-return/ https://brevmag.com/kyrie-irving-set-to-make-nba-return/#respond Fri, 17 Dec 2021 10:56:28 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10805

Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving will soon make his return to the NBA, set to only play road games. The new proposal comes after Irving’s unwillingness to get vaccinated. With a quarter of the season in the books, Irving still has yet to play this season. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported late Friday afternoon—forever the favorite window to dump bad/guaranteed-to-be-received-horrifically news—that the Nets are welcoming back their mercurial superstar, who refused to be vaccinated for unclear reasons before the start of the season and therefore hasn’t been able to play in home games due to a New York City mandate. Notably, Woj says Irving had no plans to become immunized—and we’re not talking the Aaron Rodgers definition of immunized here—anytime soon. With the roster growing thin and the work load on Kevin Durant growing, the organization looks to reverse its decision it made earlier this year by allowing Irving to play in away games excluding cities like Toronto, and Los Angeles. Irving will be the first part-time NBA player.

Spotify’s Outline To Move Beyond Solely Music https://brevmag.com/spotifys-outline-to-move-beyond-solely-music/ https://brevmag.com/spotifys-outline-to-move-beyond-solely-music/#respond Sat, 04 Dec 2021 19:34:11 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10762

The music streaming giant known as Spotify was initially brought to the light of the public back in August 2006, where current founder and CEO Daniel Ek would create history before he even knew it. Presently the largest streaming service in the world for any genre of music, the multi-billion dollar company is based out of Stockholm, Sweden where the Swedish entrepreneur originally published his service. Almost two decades later, Ek is now looking to expand the corporation’s quantity by removing themselves from exclusively streaming music in order to enable a more broad category of audio messages.   

Spotify has already begun putting some motions into action from this specific blueprint such as adding various podcasts and talk shows to their list of audios to listen to; some being The Joe Rogan Experience, The Always Sunny Podcast, Cover Story, The Daily, The Ben Shapiro Show and so many more. Currently reeling in a total of approximately $9.7 billion in sales throughout their last full year, Spotify is estimated to at least double that amount within the first two years that the streaming service begins this specific operation. Spotify is now employing over 7,400 workers and is continuously streamed throughout 184 individual countries; Daniel Ek is presently worth an estimated $4.4 billion heading into the next phase of his business. 

“The best people in audio come to Spotify because we are the best at it. Over at Apple, music is priority No. 27… If you want to build a self-driving car, do not come to us,” Ek said in response to his focus on diving into the new stages of his platform. Sean Parker, the co-founder of Napster, released a short statement on Spotify’s transition and his pure thoughts on the situation: “Spotify was the force that transitioned hundreds of millions of users from piracy to paying customers. It is no exaggeration to say that Daniel saved the music industry.” Giving respect where it is due, it is safe to say that Ek has big plans for the future of his company and is showing no signs of letting his foot off of the gas.

Newest Kobe Bryant Mural In Los Angeles https://brevmag.com/newest-kobe-bryant-mural-in-los-angeles/ https://brevmag.com/newest-kobe-bryant-mural-in-los-angeles/#respond Tue, 09 Nov 2021 17:26:13 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10656

It has been almost two full years since the unfortunate passing of NBA legend Kobe Bryant. The former Los Angeles Lakers star was a respected husband, athlete, and father of four girls before being the unfortunate victim of a low percentage helicopter accident; the crash also took the life of his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna Bryant. The operator of the helicopter struck a hillside in the Calabasas area as Kobe and his daughter were on their way to Camarillo, California for Gianna’s AAU basketball tournament. Since this devastating accident, friends, family, and fans everywhere have made their voices heard in never forgetting the lives and impact that both Kobe and Gianna had on the world. 

Various murals have been professionally painted on multiple streets, buildings, and even basketball courts throughout the entire world. More specifically, Los Angeles, California is the most populated with Kobe and Gianna remembrance murals, being that is the city where they previously lived and represented for more than two decades. The newest painting to hit the pavement is also in the Los Angeles area, where a plethora of beautifully spray-painted pictures of Kobe is displayed throughout different periods of his basketball career. Bryant’s known phrase, “Be Legendary” is clearly presented over top of the aesthetically pleasing design. In multiple colors, the painting focuses on Bryant in his Lower Merion High School jersey, while accompanying other sketches of the athlete in both his No. 8 and No. 24 Lakers jerseys. 

Throughout his 20-year long professional basketball career as a Los Angeles Laker, Kobe Bryant achieved a surplus of accomplishments such as five NBA championships, a 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, an 18-time All-Star, a 12-time member of the All-Defensive Team, a two-time NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP), and was the 2008 regular season NBA MVP. While there is nothing we can do about the tragic passing of Gianna at 13 and Kobe at 41-years-old, we can still continue to remember their story and build their true legacy that will last for generations to come.

Mike Tyson Announces New Cannabis Company, Tyson 2.0 https://brevmag.com/mike-tyson-announces-new-cannabis-company-tyson-2-0/ https://brevmag.com/mike-tyson-announces-new-cannabis-company-tyson-2-0/#respond Sat, 30 Oct 2021 20:29:28 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10566

Officially released this past Wednesday, October 27, 2021, is Mike Tyson’s recently announced cannabis company specifically called Tyson 2.0. The former world heavyweight champion is known for his beloved usage of marijuana for years now, making it a clear and fitting choice for him to branch off into this aspect of the business world. Tyson is also the founder of his other company Tyson Ranch, which is a ‘licensing and branding corporation,’ according to the business’s official website. Now, the former professional boxer is looking to make a statement as a businessman with the official launch of Tyson 2.0, which is said to soon be the go-to outlet for all your cannabis needs. 

When asked about exactly why he decided to get into the already overpopulated marijuana industry, the 55-year-old entrepreneur replied with: “I thought it was a no-brainer, and I thought about the success I had with my mental health with cannabis and psychedelics. Listen, you have to really think about it before I started using cannabis, I have always locked up I always had lawsuits. I’m hitting people, I’m fighting. I am really losing my mind, right? And I started smoking and then everything changed. I got a little heavy. I gained a lot of weight after that.” Tyson 2.0 is said to withhold various strains of flower, oil, and all different types of smoking accessories. 


Tyson is reported to be launching the company alongside the CEO of Capital Retail Group Adam Wilks, accompanied by the original founder of Fyllo, Chad Bronstein. “I understood early in our friendship that his brand could be used to bring superior products to the market,” Bronstein said when asked about his reasoning for choosing to partner with Mike. “The Tyson brand combined with a major cultivation partner like Columbia Care, with their trusted and proven reputation in the industry, we will ensure that consumers have access to the cannabis strains and form factors that Mike believes in,” he added. Based out of Los Angeles, California, it will be interesting to see just how far Mike Tyson will actually take this thriving multi-million dollar business.

Elon Musk Transports Tesla HQ To Texas https://brevmag.com/elon-musk-transports-tesla-hq-to-texas/ https://brevmag.com/elon-musk-transports-tesla-hq-to-texas/#respond Sat, 09 Oct 2021 12:22:55 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=10252

Originally founded in 2003, Tesla headquarters was built from the ground up in the heart of Palo Alto, California. However, as of this past Thursday, October 7, 2021, CEO Elon Musk surprisingly announced that the company will be switching locations from its current place to Austin, Texas. He has been hinting at the change of position to his audience for quite some time now and has finally come to the conclusion that this is the best move for the future plans hidden within the corporation. Musk’s other projects coming out of his aerospace business, SpaceX, are also currently being based out of the Austin area.

He released a statement on behalf of the sudden change that simply said, “I am excited to announce that we are moving our headquarters to Austin, Texas. Just to be clear, though, we will be continuing to expand our activities in California. This is not a matter of Tesla leaving California. Our intention is to actually increase output from Fremont and from a gig in Nevada by 50%.” It seems to be that Elon’s main concern with this transfer is that people will become worried about the company’s future endeavors in the California area; he and his team are taking every precaution to ensure that there is nothing to fear. 

The main reason behind this move is unsurprisingly due to the immense amount of financial differences. The business reported that it had accepted approximately “$465 million in low-interest loans to accelerate the production of affordable, fuel-efficient electric vehicles” during the change process. Jason Schloetzer, a professor at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business, predicted the future of Tesla’s project locations when he stated, “In Austin, they’re going to have a pretty large workforce there when that facility opens. I would anticipate they may consider drawing down production in California over the medium term. It seems like a natural evolution of decisions they’ve made recently to relocate their business out of California.” Only time will tell to see if Elon Musk will hold up to his future plans and promises, or if professor Schloetzer will genuinely be correct about the future of the Tesla company.
